"First off, this cable does everything it says it on the spec sheet. It actually carries 240W of power, which is saying something, as you'd be amazed how may I came across make that claim but in practice are limited to 100W, or even 60W. In my testing, however, I confirmed it can carry data at 40Gbps and video at 8K 60Hz, and is compatible with Thunderbolt 4 standards."
"I found myself in a rental car that didn't support wireless Apple CarPlay, so my options were to listen to the radio for nine hours, or buy a crazy overpriced (but cheaply made) cable from a gas station. Also: If your USB-C device isn't charging, I always consider this quick fix first I was forced to do the second option. $30 later (yes, really) I was able to listen to my audiobook again."
"The cable measures 5.1-inches unfolded, is coated in a soft yet durable TPU, and packs away into the keychain adapter neatly. Is this too short? Not for most applications I use it for, but sometimes I did have to put my iPhone into some strange orientations to make it work. Something to keep in mind if you have a specific use case for this cable."
A short Vafoton PD 240W USB-C keychain cable proved capable of true 240W power delivery, 40Gbps data transfer, and 8K60Hz video output with Thunderbolt 4 compatibility. The cable includes an E-Marker chip to ensure proper identification for high-speed operation. The 5.1-inch length and soft TPU jacket make it compact and durable while packing neatly into a keychain adapter that stays secure. The short length can force awkward device orientations in some use cases, but the cable remains inexpensive, reliable, and suitable for fast charging, high-speed data, and high-resolution video on the go.
